Accessing Buraq's Tools

Buraq uses one login for everything — Authentik, our identity provider. You'll get one account from an admin, and use it to reach every tool below. There's no separate signup for Plane or Mailcow.

Your account

An admin will send you:

  • A login URL (auth.buraq.games)
  • Your username/email (firstname.lastname@buraq.games)
  • A one-time password

Treat that password as temporary — the first thing to do after logging in is change it (see Change your password below).

Logging in

  1. Go to https://auth.buraq.games.

  2. Enter your @buraq.games email, then your password on the next screen.

  3. You'll land on My applications — every tool you have access to shows up here as a tile.

That's it — one login, and anything you're allowed to use appears on this page. If a tool you expect isn't listed, ask an admin to check your access.

Opening Plane

Click the Plane tile (or go straight to https://plane.buraq.games). You'll see a "Sign in with Authentik" button — click it, and since you're already logged in to Authentik, it signs you straight into Plane with no second password.

This lands you in the Buraq workspace:

From here, see Using Plane for how we track sprints, tasks, and bugs day to day.

First login only

If you land in an empty workspace that isn't called "Buraq," that's a known issue with a new account's very first login — message an admin and they'll move you into the right workspace.

Opening Mailcow (email)

Click the Mailcow tile (or go to https://mail.buraq.games) and click Single Sign-On.

Your @buraq.games mailbox is created automatically the first time you do this — no separate request needed.

Opening Gitea (engineering only)

Click the Gitea tile (or go to https://git.buraq.games) and click Sign in with authentik. Gitea is engineering-only, so this tile only shows up if you're in the engineering squad or admins.

There's no password login here — Gitea is SSO-only, same as Plane. Your first login creates your Gitea account and drops you into the buraq organization automatically, with no separate invite. See Using Gitea for cloning, CI, and the tea CLI.

Change your password

Once logged in to Authentik, go to your account settings and set a password only you know. The one an admin sent you was generated for setup only.

If you're locked out

There's no self-service "forgot password" yet. Message an admin and they'll reset it for you.
